Important *need ur help* - 05-04-2008, 03:37 AM

Meh and my friends are making a manga, but we don't know how we should start it off. Below are the two ways we would like to start it. Pls vote on which one u would be more likely to read

1.A girl searches for her parents while being chased by the king.
Then trains to be a women weapons master, while keeping her friends and her brothers safe

2. Girl searches for the parents that she was separated from 13 yrs. ago. While running from assasins that threaten her life,

Number one is good, but she shouldn't be chased by the King, it should be wired assasins or something like that.

I'm sorry, but both plotlines sound a little "stereotyped" to me.
Try thinking about something more original... poor girl who has to save friends and family/ girl who doesn't know her parents/ evil powers threathing her life... all these points have already been used into thousands of manga, anime, cartoons and novels.

Anyway, good luck with your work!

Im going to have to agree with Cyclamen.

Further more, if you and your friend are creating the story...
You have to tell the story the way you want it. Not to what the audience votes on.

By initiating the readers to vote on what they would prefer takes a lot away from the element of suprise and makes plot twist predictable. Personally, I would much rather read a story that you want to tell rather than a piece thats been voted on.
